For a while I was under the impression that it just didn’t work well, as well - then I realised I wasn’t really setting the correct major mode for my vue files. This mode is awesome - tabbing can break if you have invalid code, if it’s behaving weirdly take a deep breath and look at it again

Dear all,
I have only recently noticed that VSCode as well as Intellij have opt-out policy for telemetry.
Moreover, even with opt-out, VSCode FAQ discloses that in some cases telemetry will take place no matter what (not sure which exceptions).
Further, Intellij seems to enable opt-out only for specific projects and it is at least burdensome to really opt-out.
I am not sure which is the case with other IDEs.
Has anyone investigated deeper the matter?
Is there a safe IDE that assures that what happens on my computer, stays on my computer?

Thanks for the tip! I will try it. BTW, are you sure that this one is totally ripped off any telemetry messages?

They don’t pass the telemetry flag during builds and automatically set the config values to false for the telemetry settings. More info: https://github.com/VSCodium/vscodium/blob/master/DOCS.md#disable-telemetry

VSCodium apparently leaves ‘Enable Experiments’ on, which “fetches experiments to run from a Microsoft online service”.

If you really want to make sure your IDE won’t send data over the wire, then the only solution is to use something like network namespaces or any kind of sandboxing that will prevent internet access by default.
On topic, I have been using almost exclusively VS code for the last few years. No other free editor I have tried on Linux over the years come close.. I’ll give a look at VSCodium though!
